4. If necessary, use the controls on your monitor to adjust the

brightness and contrast until characters on the screen are

clear and at a comfortable level of intensity. If your monitor

has horizontal and vertical hold controls, you may need to

use them to stabilize the display.

5. The screen displays the following prompt:

Press

Del to start SETUP

Do not press any key yet; you just want to make sure the

computer is working. This prompt appears every time you

turn on your computer so you can run SETUP if necessary.

After a few seconds, the prompt disappears.

If there is no operating system installed on your computer, you

then see an error message. Ignore the message for now;

once you install the operating system, you will not see this

message. If MS-DOS® is already installed, you may see the

command prompt (

C

:\) or the menu screen of a program

such as Windows, if it has been configured to do this.

Where To Go Next

If your system is preconfigured, the only thing you need to do

now is install any additional software and VGA device drivers

you want to use. (See your application program manuals for

instructions on installing software.) If you are using Microsoft®

Windows®, be sure to install the appropriate VGA driver(s) for

your monitor. See the VGA Utilities Guide for instructions. Then

see Chapter 1 of the User’s Guide for important information

about operating your computer.

If your system is not preconfigured, follow the instructions in

Chapter 2 to run the SETUP program. Guidelines at the end of

Chapter 2 tell you what to do next.
